Question for you Alan. How come you never post any of your marbles that shed light on any of your responses to any threads here? It’s a pattern that I don’t understand. Hope for $5.00? Here’s a Newbie just asking about a group of marbles they aren’t sure of when it comes to monetary value. Do tell and start an interesting thread about one of your marbles you’re not sure of it’s value or an ID. You’re a buzz kill and I don’t care if Art shuts this thread down. I’m just glad Halli asked about these🔥

I do not understand your first point. I don't collect common Cats Eyes, so I do not have a comparative example to post. If anyone disagrees with my (or any one else's) price estimate, they can, of course, extend the OP a monetary offer. Money talks. An offer beats an estimate. Offer the OP $100 for the pictured Cat's Eyes.
Some members post countless threads here. My opinion on that is irrelevant. I follow my own compass and standards developed for 3+ decades. There is a fair amount of self-promotion here. That is not my style. To each their own.
Over the years I have historically posted a fair number of photos of what I collect. Little mystery there. The Search function here works. I also own significant amounts that I do not share and never have. I have no motivation to.
Your latter opinion is just that.

From Inkspotsantiques.com:
This is a great looking 3-color Akro Agate Popeye marble in Vaseline glass.

A very good box. Marbles are original to it. In 1950 it was leftover "new old stock" from a decade or more before.

Found this; An end of day is a term used to describe a speckled pattern that usually onionskins would have at the end of the day when left over pieces of glass were used to make canes that they constructed Onionskins from. There are speckled Indians as well and they would be considered an end of Day Indian.
The one I have is a typical Cane-cut Banded Indian with long stretched lines.

They are considered "end-of-day" because it's believed they were made using leftover glass at the end of the day. The term "Indian" refers to a specific style of these marbles, known for their soft, brittle black glass and colored surface bands.
Plus I have one and was labeled as such.

I am very calm. I always have been. But I don't need to tolerate supported abuse.
